Overview
- Johnson said on the Fitz & Whit podcast that the new scheme has Kyle Shanahan influences and wide-zone concepts that could reduce one-on-one isolation for him and Jordan Mailata.
- Philadelphia hired Sean Mannion from the Packers in January to replace Kevin Patullo, with expectations of a modern West Coast approach featuring more play-action and under-center snaps.
- Johnson expressed confidence in Mannion’s potential, likening his possible trajectory to former Eagles coordinator Shane Steichen.
- Longtime offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland has departed, and former Vikings assistant Chris Kuper will take over the Eagles’ offensive line.
- Set to enter his 14th season, Johnson voiced buy-in as the team begins offseason installation of the new offense, noting the real test will come once games begin.
